No more smoking, enough is enough
Today its for real. I haven't had a cigarette all day. Kinda thinking bout one right now....Hmmmm...I had enough with the smoking habit. 1 Pack a day for the last 10 years in enough. Its ****ing retarded to even think about how healthy we all eat, and how hard we work in the gym, just to light one up. Makes no ****ing sense to me.
Wish me some luck guys, I can't fail at this. I won't fail.

sumtin like that...
smoke free for like 2 months now... happy, enjoying it, sooooo easy...
the book is Allen Carr's EasyWay To Stop Smoking... now that i come to think bout it... should be a sticky... smoking really f***s up your workout.
good luck... i guess, luck is not needed, howerver, if you succeed, but still feel miserable... read the book... if you cant "quit", read the book... if you're bored... read the book.......... lol, im starting to sound like allen carr's rep

That book changed my life for the better. As soon as I finished reading it, I never had another cigarette. Been almost six months and I will never smoke again. Quitting really was easy after the first week.

Yeah I keep hearing 72 hours is the make or break period. It takes about that long for your body to rid itself of nicotine, but about 10- 14 days to completely get over the physical addiction. I was going to use the lounges, but anywhere I read says best way is cold turkey......Lounges simply keep u in a state of craving until you end up smoking one...Just came back from the store before and smelling the smoke blown from other people smelt pretty damn good.....

I wish you the absolute best in your quest to be monkey free!
I quit last November after about 10 years on and off. I fell off the wagon three or four times this summer but each time I had no desire to smoke, I was just bored and not working out so I fell back on old habits.
The absolute best resource for support and general information on what tobacco does to you and just how it can actually kill many of the gains you make in the gym is http://whyquit.com/ the guy who runs it is great he is plain spoken, he doesn't talk down to the people he is trying to help and he is genuinely knowledgeable about smoking, its addictive nature and its physical effects.
Check it out, whenever I feel the urge i just go there and get a reality check.
Good luck man, YOU CAN DO IT!!!
